2． Growing up in the Philippines，construction worker Johnny Manlugay combs the beaches each night for the eggs of sea turtles.He knows exactly what to look for，as he was trained as a child by his grandfather on how to locate the animals and their eggs.Back then，his family traded or ate them.It wasn't about getting rich.It was just a part of life.
But Manlugay has since turned over a new leaf.Now，he uses his tracking skills to protect the sea turtles that visit the beaches he lives by. "I've learned to love this work，" Manlugay acknowledged in an interview. "We didn't know poaching （偷獵） was illegal and that we should not eat turtle eggs and meat."
Manlugay carefully moved each egg into a bucket he brought with him，as well as some sand from the turtle nests，so as to hand them over to Coastal Underwater Resource Management Actions（CURMA）— the group leading the conservation program on the beaches.
The conservation effort established in 2009 has transformed sea turtle poachers into helpers，offering training to help save thousands of turtles and keep their eggs from ending up in markets and on plates. "We talked to the poachers，and it turned out poaching was just another means for them to earn a living，" explained Carlos Tamayo，the director of operations. "They had no choices."
Once collected，the eggs are then reburied in protected areas to ensure the hatch.Another former poacher，Jessie Cabagbag，who grew up eating turtle meat and eggs，takes care of one of the protected areas now. "I stopped poaching when we underwent training and were taught that what we have been doing was illegal and that these species of turtles are endangered，" he explained.Now，he admits， "I am truly proud.I am happy that I can contribute to the conservation of the turtles."

3． Do you often compare yourself to other people？Comparisons can help to make decisions and motivate you but they can also pull you into a comparison trap.
Whether it's the number of goals you've scored at football or how many books you've read，it's easy to compare yourself to someone else.Scientists say it's a natural behaviour that helps humans learn from each other，live happily together and achieve more.Although comparing can be good for you，it's not always helpful and you can find yourself stuck in a comparison trap.This is when you always measure yourself against others and base your feelings on how well others seem to be doing.
Becky Goddard-Hill is a child psychologist and author of Create Your Own Confidence.She says that comparisons can make us feel good and bad about ourselves. "Comparing up" means seeing someone doing better than you and using that to inspire yourself to aim higher and try harder.However，Goddard-Hill says， "Sometimes it can make you feel rubbish about yourself and knock your confidence." "Comparing down" is when you see someone who seems like they're not doing as well as you.This might make you feel you're doing well，says Goddard-Hill，but it can also stop you wanting to improve.
"If your feelings depend on what other people are doing，surround yourself with cheerleaders，" suggests Goddard-Hill.Notice how people make you feel and spend time with friends who celebrate your strengths rather than compare themselves to you.
If you follow social media accounts that make you feel you are failing in any way，unfollow them. "Find ones that make you laugh or show you lovely places instead，" she says.Finally，focus on your own achievements and how you can improve. "The best person you can compete with is yourself，" says Goddard-Hill.
（1）How does a comparison trap affect us？
A．It helps us focus on our own behaviour.
B．It stops us from learning from each other.
C．It prevents us from living happily together.
D．It makes us care little about our true feelings.
（2）What's true about "Comparing up" and "Comparing down"？
A．The latter may encourage us to appreciate others.
B．The former may help us try harder and gain confidence.
C．The latter may fail to help us make self-improvement.
D．The former may stop us from learning from role models.
（3）What does Goddard-Hill suggest？
A．Aiming to be our best.
B．Trying to be the best.
C．Trying to be a cheerleader.
D．Valuing others' achievements.
（4）In which section of the magazine can you find the passage？
A．Politics.
C．Science.
B．Health.
D．Entertainment.組卷：3引用：1難度：0.5

9．Monday started out great．I woke up on time，ate breakfast and did some last minute studying for my first hour math test．I was confident of getting good grades．Then I left my house．Ten minutes later，I sat by my friends on the bus．We were busily chatting about how we spent our weekend when，THUMP! Ryan tripped over someone's foot and fell onto the floor between the two rows of seats．
Everyone on the bus laughed crazily．Ryan picked himself up and made his way to an empty seat．He tried to laugh with us，but his face was red with embarrassment．The rest of the morning flew by．I did well in my math test．I read two more chapters of To Kill a Mockingbird in English class．It wasn't long before the lunch bell sounded．I met my friends from the cheerleading team in the dining hall．Then I couldn't help but notice Ryan is a few tables over，setting alone．He caught me looking．I smiled at him quickly and turned away．
When we finished eating，we headed out to the courtyard to practice a cheer we wanted to do at that night's football game．After a little practice，we nailed the cheer，so we decided we only needed to go through it one last time．Again，just like the rest of my day so far，the cheer was going great．I raised my leg for one last toe （腳趾） touch．RIIIPPP!I felt my jeans split down the middle of my backside．
I froze．I didn't know what to do but stayed still．Then I heard people laughing，and I saw them pointing．Trying to cover myself with my hands，I tried to laugh too，but I felt tears began to escape from my eyes．
